Abstract

This study is partly from the on-going project and discovers the essential characteristics of the traditional Malaysian Batik. The Malaysian identity should sustain and retain as part of Malaysian heritage.Â The modernisation of Malaysia brought about many positive changes, but it has also impacted culture, predominantly Malay batik authenticity. This review will share clear insight into how this scenario provided cultural context and meaning related to the Malaysian traditional batik motif.
